Chapter Five

Modelling and Simulation of Machining Processes and Operations

Abstract

This chapter provides the state-of-the-art knowledge engineering and modelling techniques applied in manufacturing/machining and overviews future trends observed at a global scale. Modelling methods for machining processes and operations are classified. The chapter also highlights the multiple tasks of modelling and simulation in modern machining/manufacturing systems. The most popular techniques of numerical simulation including finite difference method and finite element method (FEM) related to mechanical and thermal problems arising in machining processes are described. Practical examples of FE models of various metal cutting operations and their importance ...
